Is Coke Zero also carcinogenic?

James Wong, a science writer, shared a Tweet which read: “According to the WHO aspartame is as carcinogenic as aloe vera and pickled veg. And less carcinogenic than eating red meat, drinking hot drinks, or being a hairdresser.”

“It’s rather like reporting an earthquake measuring 2 on the Richter scale hit a major city, without explaining that earthquakes of 2.5 or less are rarely felt, but can be measured on a seismograph,” he added.

Do neurotypicals really not have to do this? I'm seriously asking.

Yep, and not just that either. It's like that all the time. Ha it's are just things you do without thinking, like reaching for your phone or wanting a smoke/drink/snack.

Now, choosing to set aside a time of day and a routine for something, like exercise, can help ease the barrier to starting that thing. This is sometimes described as a habit, though it is not, psychologically speaking, a habit.

Hello fellow adults! Anybody else feel like almost every time you have to talk to someone to buy a thing, you're being swindled? If so how do you keep yourself from being taken advantage of?

I bought a truck earlier this year from a dealership. I went to four places with an idea of my needs. A couple of them were so high pressure and loaded with shit, man. Unfortunately the best truck for me was at one of the scummy places so they got my money. I love the truck, it's perfect. But I hate that they think their tactics worked and wish I could've made it clear I was trying to avoid dealing with them, and only went back because the product was good. NOT because they were some super sales force
